Waste of money.

The rest of the staff has always been polite and hardworking, but the service from this one employee consistently ruins the experience.

PDQ- Pretty Darn Quick vs People Dedicated to Quality. Extremely fast service, crazy fast. I ordered the BLT and it was ok, nothing special. Chicken breast was little too soft in the center as if was undercooked. Zucchini fries had all the flavor but they were soggy and not hot as if were under a heat lamp for a while. Girlfriend ordered crispy chicken salad which was a small breast and what appears to be pre packaged salad mix (carrots starting to turn white on sides showing age). In this case. Pretty Darn Quick heavily out weighs Quality, comparable to a small step above Mc Donalds F-0142 1:35pm 09/07/15 read more

I will say the burger was a little small compared to others but for the price fresh and tasty. I'll try a side next time. Service friendly.

The "fresh fries" did not have a crunch and were devoid of seasoning. Did NOT taste like fresh cut fries. Pretty sure it's "fresh frozen", but soggy. Onion rings were thick as pictured but were undercooked and GREASY. Hard pass on those. OK, the main event is the burger. Tried the Steakburger and it has potential but it's like a brand new line cook on his first day made it. The mushrooms were on the side like he missed the burger when spooning them out, the bacon was low quality and again, soggy. Not thick crunchy bacon, but thin floppy greasy crap. The burger patty has a nice peppercorn crust but again, NO SEASONING. Fresh beef needs SALT! It is kinda hearty/earthy with mushrooms, bacon, onion rings, peppercorn, but the sauce is light/sour that just.doesn't.go. and kinda ruins the burger. When quality control and standards go out the window, this is what you get. SOGGY, GREASY, flavorless food that should not have been served.

I had high hopes, but it was way below the hype for me…read more The service was okay, although I came when it was empty (11:30am) and it still took quite a while to get my food. I'm not really sure why. I ordered the single charburger with cheese, fries and a Pepsi. Sadly, the burger was nothing special. No better to me than Whataburger or Burger King. For a flame grilled burger, Seminole Gyros and Subs is far superior for the same price. Culver's is better as well, for the same price, although it's not flame grilled. I'm afraid this is my first and last visit here.

We're originally from California and moved to Florida a little over a year ago, and ever since then we've definitely been craving The Habit. We were so excited to stumble upon this location! One of the first things we noticed was that it wasn't busy at all -- which honestly shocked us (in the best way). Back in California, every Habit location always seemed packed at all hours of the day, so this felt like a treat. I ordered the Teriyaki Char with crispy green beans, and my husband got the Double Char meal with fries. Somehow, the food tasted even better than what we remember from California! My burger was cooked to a perfect medium -- which is rare to find at a fast-casual spot -- and it made such a difference. Everything was hot, fresh, and flavorful. We also had the pleasure of chatting with the manager, Danielle, who was incredibly friendly -- and funny enough, she's originally from California too! Small world! Every employee we encountered was welcoming, kind, and made sure to greet us when we arrived and wish us a good night when we left. The restaurant was very clean and well-kept, which we really appreciated. Overall, such a wonderful experience. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in the Clearwater area!

Chicken Salad Chick

What an incredibly disappointing experience after being a loyal customer for over a year…read more I have consistently visited this location and regularly order the large tub of Classic Chicken Salad through the drive-thru. One of the small things I always looked forward to was the sugar cookie that traditionally came with it -- something that made loyal customers feel appreciated. Today, I picked up my usual order and noticed the sugar cookie was missing. When I politely asked about it, the manager, Ms. Rodriguez, bluntly and rudely told me, "Now you have to pay for it," with absolutely no courtesy, explanation, or appreciation for someone who has supported this location for over a year. It wasn't even about the cookie -- it was the dismissive attitude, poor customer service, and complete lack of care toward a repeat customer. A simple explanation or a little kindness would have gone a long way. Instead, I left feeling brushed off and disrespected. Customer loyalty clearly means very little here. Sadly, after this experience, I will be taking my business elsewhere. Very upsetting and disappointing treatment.

I'm genuinely surprised to see such ratings for Indi's Chicken. I went in expecting a simple,…read moreno-frills spot serving good old-fashioned fried chicken and classic sides. That sounded great to me. Unfortunately, the food, portions, and pricing were all disappointing. A three-piece chicken meal with two sides runs around $13-$14, and the pieces are small. Two of my three pieces were very small drumsticks. The meal doesn't include a drink, and if you just want water, you have to buy a bottle. The sides also come in very small portions. I ordered the 3 piece spicy chicken with baked beans and potato wedges. The seasoning on the chicken had a decent flavor, but it wasn't spicy at all. The bigger issue was that the chicken was extremely dry. The larger piece of fried chicken was especially bad, there was barely any meat in it. Most of it was over-fried, hardened breading surrounding a lot of empty space. I kept biting into thick, crunchy breading and air while trying to find actual chicken. The baked beans were fine but nothing notable. I did like the potato wedges, which were probably the best part of the meal. You get three as a side, but they are at least fairly large. There are also several extra costs that add up. Sauces are sold separately, the meal doesn't include a drink, and there's an additional 3% charge if you don't pay with cash. All in all, I really don't understand the high ratings. You can get better fried chicken at plenty of fast-food restaurants, or even from Walmart or Publix, for less money, with larger portions and more options. Even if you're specifically looking for a no-frills local chicken spot, this doesn't feel like a good value. You pay more, get less, and, based on my visit, the quality isn't there. I definitely wouldn't recommend it.
